Open Mind: Microsoft's Visual Studio-like suite for machine learning

Microsoft has been on a bundling binge as of late, bringing together more of its disparate products and services into suites. There looks to be yet another suite in the cards called Open Mind Studio. Open Mind is a Visual Studio-like suite for machine learning, according to slides from an August 2 talk by Microsoft Executive Vice President of Applications and Services Qi Lu. AI techniques are becoming part of every day computing: here's how they're being used to help online retailers keep up with the competition. The slide embedded in this post above is from Lu's "Machine Learning @ Microsoft" presentation at the Stanford Scaled Machine Learning Conference.
